Import / Export: Article translations
Please mind that you can only edit and add translations to exisiting items. It is not possible to create completely new items with this profile type.
General information
Before an import to the live-system is done, you should create a database backup. In any case the import should be tested in a test- or staging-system.
Basic translations
When importing item translations we have to keep in mind, to include the correct languageId for the translations. This id can be found in the table s_core_multilanguage. Attributes can only be imported if they are marked as translatable in the basic settings.

Minimal import
